Message: [QUOTE="osceola48, post: 2121063, member: 2371"] Thanks for your response. And you are right - trying that pass is taking a big chance that the execution is perfect. I guess my point is that the players on this UConn team look for the open man and share the ball extremely well, and other teams don't. I think Ogunbowle wasn't even looking for any options- she was going to shoot and that was that. UConn players always look for options, and they trust their teammates to execute and to not be surprised by getting a quick pass. (This wasn't always the case. Diana Taurasi would have had perhaps 50 more assists for UConn if her teammates had been ready for her passes.) Now Maya Moore - we have watched a parade of great UConn players over the years, but Maya is still my favorite for graceful, amazing excellence. I have said that you could put together a 30 minute highlight reel, where the reaction to each play would be "How did she do that?" [/QUOTE]
